Ain't Stephen great?


Sure,he's a "B" actor,but he always seems to turn in memorable performances even in some rather unmemorable films. He's always that one element that stands out in any given film he's in,whether he stars or not.

"It's a FAAAAKE!"

Gotta love that one. lol

I have to agree. Actually, I would consider him more of a B+ or A- actor :) I loved Pontypool!

stephen is an awesome actor, very underappreciated by hollywood, but I think he has wanted it that way

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results

He's a great actor! Being canadian, I've pretty much grown up watching him pop up on every canadian production I've ever seen. As well as everywhere else...and that quote you used, btw was/is from one of my favourite shows & was actually one of the best episodes, with Sisko basically stepping over to the dark side. Good stuff! *^^)b

I found him really scary in this movie.

He's an awesome actor, he reminds me a lot of Lance Henrikson. This guy probably would have been a big star in the 80's or early 90's, it seems nowadays you have to be "beautiful" to breakthrough to the mainstream. He looks pretty similar to Henrikson, i thought it was him at first lol.

Well darn, I guess it wasn't just me. I thought it was Lance for a quick moment, but I know he looks older now so it couldn't be him. To think of it this probably isn't the first time I've mistaken Stephen M. for Lance, or at least noticed the resemblance. He was convincing in this role for sure, creepy too.

Hmm...to your first point, I thought he was considered attractive, in his youth anyway. I mean he's been around for years right?

Didn't he play James Dean in the 70s? And Rosemary's Baby in the TV sequel. He also played Andrew Borden in the recent Lizzie Borden movie on Lifetime. Always a solid performance from him.

As the Pale Man in this, he reminded me of the creepy postman in Rockwell's video to Somebody's Watching Me.

Every time I saw Stephen McHattie (Pale Man), it reminded me of The G-Man from Half Life.
